If Einstein, Mozart, or Orwell were born today, they would be diagnosed with a disorder in childhood and schooled or medicated into barren normality. And surprise, surprise: Big Pharma has treatments available.

The manual of mental disorders identifies a new mental illness called oppositional defiant disorder or ODD.

Defined as an ongoing pattern of disobedient, hostile and defiant behavior, symptoms include questioning authority, cynicism, defiance, argumentativeness, and being easily annoyed.

Is nonconformity and freethinking a mental illness? Is above average creativity a disease? According to the DSM-IV (Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders) these traits are all symptoms of ill and diseased minds.

The DSM-IV is the manual used by psychiatrists to diagnose mental illnesses and, with each new edition, there are scores of new mental illnesses. Are we getting sicker? Is it becoming harder to be mentally healthy?

Authors of the DSM-IV say that it’s because they’re better able to identify these illnesses today. Critics charge that it’s because society is becoming more repressive, and Big Pharma is desperate to create new markets.

New mental illnesses identified by the DSM-IV include arrogance, narcissism, above-average creativity, cynicism, and antisocial behavior. In the past, these were called personality traits, but now they’re diseases.

All of this is a symptom of our over-diagnosing and over-medicating culture. In the last 50 years, the DSM-V has gone from 130 to 357 mental illnesses.

A majority of these illnesses afflict children. Although the manual is an important diagnostic tool for the psychiatric industry, it has also been responsible for social changes.

The rise in ADD, bipolar disorder, and depression in children has been largely because of the manual’s identifying certain behaviors as symptoms.

A Washington Post article observed that, if Mozart were born today, he would be diagnosed with ADD and medicated into barren normality.

According to the DSM-IV, the diagnosis guidelines for identifying oppositional defiant disorder are for children, but adults can just as easily suffer from the disease. This should give any freethinking American reason for worry.

The Soviet Union used new mental illnesses for Zionist backed political repression. People who didn’t accept the beliefs of the Communist Party controlled by the Jesuits developed a new type of schizophrenia.

They suffered from the delusion of believing communism was wrong. They were isolated, forcefully medicated, and put through repressive therapy to bring them back to sanity.

When the last edition of the DSM-IV was published, identifying the symptoms of various mental illnesses in children, there was a jump in the diagnosis and medication of children.

Some states have laws that allow protective agencies to forcibly medicate, and even make it a punishable crime to withhold medication. This paints a chilling picture for those of us who are nonconformists.

Although the authors of the manual claim no ulterior motives but simply better diagnostic practices, the labeling of freethinking and nonconformity as mental illnesses has a lot of potential for abuse. It can easily become a weapon in the arsenal of a repressive state.

Children we all born geniuses, until they were ordered to go to school in order to bend their genius minds into being a zombie to the enslaved system.

This is a MAJOR-MAJOR issue with me its mind control and forced conformance with the current dogma as issued by George Soros and his ilk to turn us into slave like consumerists . Already brain implants have been tested on monkeys to make them act in a slave like manner AI is already controlling us via new cell-net phones in what you text or email by supplying words that are not your thoughts but a programmer working for big business and governments .

She was also responsible for the torture and killing of the US ambassador in Tripoli, when NATO/UN invaded Libya to assassinate Ghadaffi? He got tortured, raped and burned alive as repercussion for the torture of the historic Libyan leader.

One of the biggest injustices in history- Gahdaffi treated his people well- free medicine – hospitals -gave to the poor , he made the mistake of trying to set up an African gold currency to compete with the $$$$ .

Reading the full ghastly details of his death was soul destroying -no human being should have that inflicted on them.
